Network Topography:
File "Server" - XP Pro SP2
Client Computers (4) - XP Pro SP2
Router
All the PCs are up to date, no updates need be applied.
Simple file sharing has been turned off and NTFS permissions are set up
to allow all users full control over shared folder 1, and to allow user
A and B full control over folder 2, both folders on the file "server."
The folder set for everyone to have full control works fine. The folder
set to have the two users full control, and no policy for anyone else,
continually gives the message:
"You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact
the administrator of this server to find out if you have access
permissions.
Access is denied."
whenever anyone tries to access it.
User A and B both log on, with passwords on their own machine, and user
name and password are the exact same on the file "server" as they are
on their individual machine. There is never an option to enter username
or password, it's simply the above message. This does not change if
there's a different username and password set for full control, IE: if
non-existent user A is given full control over the shared folder, but
nobody else has a policy set for them. There is never a user
name/password prompt.
Additionally: The number of connections remains at the default limit of
10, NBT is enabled, the computer browsing service is enabled, windows
firewall is disabled, the guest account has been enabled, disabled and
re-enabled, cacls has been applied to assure proper ntfs permissions,
the network permissions look right, there are no firewalls installed on
any of the computers.
